Safety Precautions Caution • Do not aim the camera at bright light sources (the sun, etc.). Doing so may cause malfunctions or damage the image sensor. • When using the camera on a beach or at a windy location, be careful not to allow dust or sand to enter the camera. This may cause the camera to malfunction. • In regular use, small amounts of smoke may be emitted from the flash. This is due to the high intensity of the flash burning dust and foreign materials stuck to the front of the unit. Please use a cotton swab to remove dirt, dust or other foreign matter from the flash to prevent heat build-up and damage to the unit. • Unplug the battery charger from the power outlet after recharging is complete, or when you are not using it. • Do not place anything, such as cloth on top of the battery charger while it is charging. Leaving the unit plugged in for a long period of time may cause it to overheat and distort, resulting in fire. • Remove and store the battery when you are not using the camera. If the battery is left inside the camera, damage caused by leakage may occur. • Before you discard battery, cover the terminals with tape or other insulators. Contacting other metal materials in waste containers may lead to fire or explosions. • Do not place the battery near pets. Pets biting the battery could cause leakage, overheating or explosion, resulting in fire or injuries. • Do not sit down with the camera in your pocket. Doing so may cause malfunctions or damage the screen. • When putting the camera in your bag, ensure that hard objects do not come into contact with the screen. • Do not attach accessories to the strap. Doing so may cause malfunctions or damage the screen. 11
